Sign in background says Long Manufacturing, which has clutch and radiator products. Here is a 1916 Packard https://glory4cars.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/1916-Packard-Twin-Six-4.jpg. Maybe your '18 was in an accident had the radiator replaced.


Those front fenders and door handles look the same.

Dennis, and the horn as well. Also, the vertical spout to which radiator coolant is added looks the same.

Any of you car guys know what this might be? On the photo it said 1918 Packard. However, Packards have a very distinct grill and this ain't it.

I've searched the net but can't find anything similar to this front grill. Style looks to be more like 1912. I just noticed it is right-hand drive, so it could be European.

Clues: no bumper, hood attaches to the cowl strangely, flat fender above front wheel with a little guard at the very front.

Search "antique American automobile" on Google Images. See if you can find a match.

I think it’s a Luverne possibly a 1918.

I think you nailed it. Thank you! It appears to be a Winton Six, made in Cleveland, Ohio. One of the first American companies to sell a motor car, founded in 1897.

I was looking in The Old Motor but hadn't yet come across this.

How about something like this but maybe a different year?

I am surprised to see steel spoke wheels on a 1913 vintage auto. Large wooden spokes, yes. I thot that steel spokes did not appear until 1927 or so. Guess I was wrong.
